Apply to the AI Jump Start grant program
Are you incorporating GenAI into your Fall '24 and/or Spring '25 course(s)? |
If so, we want to help. In collaboration with Duke University Libraries and Duke Health, we are providing support for Duke faculty incorporating generative AI into an aspect of their existing 2024-25 courses with AI Jump Start Grants. Proposals are being accepted on a rolling basis. Awards may provide up to $7,500 for implementation, as well as a $1,000 stipend deposited into a faculty discretionary account (for projects with a faculty co-lead, the two faculty will share the stipend). |
